How the tools actually work, photographed as they run: the score's arithmetic, the readers, the exports, the design decisions.
-
Blog · Evidence
The whole arithmetic behind an ATS score, printed on the page
Three weights, four content rules, five ceilings. We ran the check and photographed every number.
-
Blog · Evidence
A résumé parser with no model in it, and what it prints instead
Deterministic specialists read the document, quote it, and say how many of them worked. We photographed the reading.
-
Blog · Evidence
The screen between your file and your résumé, and what it shows
Every field the reader filled, every field it left empty, and the counts it read. Photographed on a real import.
-
Blog · Evidence
An uncertain parser should ask you, and nothing should move until you answer
Our test import produced exactly one question, with two answers and a promise that nothing is applied until it is answered.
-
Blog · Evidence
A value the reader cannot trace to your document is dropped, and the drop is counted
Every string a specialist emits is checked against the source text. What fails the check is removed and reported, never shown.
-
Blog · Evidence
We measured the DOCX export: zero network requests
The Word file is assembled in the page, byte by byte. We recorded the network during an export and counted what left.
-
Blog · Evidence
A score you cannot check is a rating, so this one shows its working
The sum, the weights and the engine's own algorithm string, printed under the number on every report we ran.
-
Blog · Evidence
Why a well-formatted résumé with nothing in it is held at 40
Four caps applied after the sum. We built a document that trips one and photographed both numbers.
-
Blog · Evidence
The line that tells you whether the score is even about your résumé
Words, lines, recognised headings, roles and skills. The extraction the score was computed from, printed under the report.
-
Blog · Evidence
We rewrote one résumé's structure and the score moved from 40 to 97
Two checks, one browser, one history table. The same work, filed two ways, with both scores side by side.
-
Blog · Evidence
We exported a PDF from the builder and fed it back to the checker
The round trip: 159 words recovered, 4 headings, 2 roles, 9 skills, and a score three points below the pasted text.
-
Blog · Evidence
The letter engine selects your sentences; it never writes one
Three proof paragraphs, each a line from the résumé, each traced. We drafted one against an invented posting and photographed it.
-
Blog · Evidence
What the posting asked for and your evidence cannot support, listed and never claimed
Our draft found three gaps and asserted none of them. The same posting against thinner evidence found eight.
-
Blog · Evidence
Each proof paragraph says which line of your résumé it came from
Traced to your résumé, line 9. Then line 10, then line 14. Photographed on a real draft.
-
Blog · Evidence
A letter with no name on it says so, before you send it
We drafted the same letter without a name. The review changed to needs attention and named the reason.
-
Blog · Evidence
A thumbnail of a letter tells you nothing, so the gallery shows the page
12 designs across 5 families, each shown as a complete letter you can read before choosing.
-
Blog · Evidence
A badge about a layout, and never a promise about an employer's software
21 of the 37 designs carry the mark. Here is the property it describes and the test behind it.
-
Blog · Evidence
Changing the layout never touches a word of your content
37 designs, one document. The formatting panel says it in its own words: adjust the design without changing the structure of your content.
-
Blog · Evidence
Save the draft you are about to ruin, on this device, in one click
Version history, kept in the browser, up to twelve snapshots. We saved one and photographed the menu and the message.
-
Blog · Evidence
Every design in the gallery renders as a complete page, because that is what you are choosing
37 designs, each drawn in full rather than shown as a thumbnail. A slower gallery that answers the question.
-
Blog · Evidence
Three typefaces, a scale and a line height, and what each one is actually for
The formatting panel offers four controls. We photographed it and worked out what each one does to a page.
-
Blog · Evidence
No parser reads your accent colour, so the question is only about the person
The scoring engine has no colour rule at all. What colour changes is where a human eye lands first.
-
Blog · Evidence
The checker has no opinion about page count, and a reader has a strong one
No rule in the scoring engine counts pages. The volume rule tops out at 250 words. The rest is for the human eye.
-
Blog · Evidence
Nothing to sign up for, one storage key, and one place that asks for an email
The work lives in your browser under a single key, and the save is verified by reading the bytes back.
-
Blog · Evidence
The numbers on the shared endpoints, and why you will not meet them
Twenty imports, sixty checks, forty letters and twelve PDF renders per five minutes, per address. Saturation guards, not a plan.
-
Blog · Evidence
20 portfolio designs, each one a page somebody drew
Six directions, twenty complete websites, and a note on the gallery saying which five we would pick first.
-
Blog · Evidence
Each of the 20 portfolio designs is a page, not a preset
Open one and it fills the screen at full size, with a sample person who does not exist and a structure nothing else shares.
-
Blog · Evidence
Animation that carries meaning, and a reduced-motion rule in every design
Every design in the shipped set carries reduced-motion rules of its own. Motion here is structure, not decoration.
-
Blog · Evidence
The check step renders your real page at 1280 and at 390 before anything is public
Two device widths, the actual renderer, your own content. We photographed both on an invented candidate's page.
-
Blog · Evidence
The picture in the gallery is a photograph of the page it opens
Twenty-six posters, twenty-six full-page captures, one versioned address each. The preview cannot drift from the design.

Everything on this site is backed by one of the four tools.

Career guides
Step-by-step guides for one job each, every one backed by a tool on this site that does the thing the guide describes.
- Examples
Résumé and cover letter examples
Written examples for one role at a time, rendered in our own designs by the engine that renders yours. Every person here is invented, and the page says so.
- How-to
How to do it here
The awkward cases: on a phone, without Word, without an account, without paying, without an email address.

Conxfolio beside the alternatives
Architectural facts only. What each tool is, what it costs, what it holds back, and a way for you to check both yourself.
- Make
Guided outcomes
One outcome at a time, with the real tools chained in the order that gets you there: read the résumé in, check it, write the letter from it, export both.
Conxfolio is a free set of four career tools: a résumé builder with 37 rendered layouts, an ATS résumé checker that prints its own arithmetic, a cover letter builder that traces every proof paragraph back to the line it came from, and a portfolio builder with 20 authored designs. There is no account to create, nothing is held back for a paid plan, and no language model is used anywhere in the product, so the readers, the score and the letter are deterministic code you can check.
